Some Shanghai parks allow dogs to enter.

Looking for a place to take a stroll with your pets? Some city parks are exactly the right destination.

Shanghai's recreation authorities state that quite a number of parks in the city now allow dogs inside.

Among them, Shanghai Expo Culture Park in the Pudong New Area, covering about 10,000 square meters in the heart of waterfront, features a playground for dogs. It is a paradise for canine companions with supporting facilities such as washing and drinking areas.

In the midst of the city's urban sprawl, the park offers urban residents a close getaway with verdant pathways, natural landscapes and classical gardens.

Pengpu Four Seasons Park in Jing'an District has separate activity areas for dogs.

Nanda Park, a community-based park in Baoshan District, features floral and wetland landscapes where dogs can play on grasses.

Zhongyang Park in Songjiang District, which features sculptures, is also a good option for dog-walking.
